Product Information

• Name: 3β-Methoxy-2,3-dihydrowithaferin A
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 3Beta-Methoxy-2,3-dihydrowithaferin A is a synthetic withanolide, which is a type of steroidal lactone derived from the withanolide class of compounds. These compounds are primarily sourced from plants in the Solanaceae family, such as *Withania somnifera*, commonly known as Ashwagandha. The mode of action of this synthetic analogue involves mimicking the biological activities of natural withanolides, which include modulating signaling pathways and inducing apoptosis in cancer cells. The compound achieves its effects by interacting with molecular targets such as heat shock proteins and NF-κB pathways, leading to anti-inflammatory and anticancer activities.
